Resizing LVM made easy : A Beginner’s Guide

In our earlier tutorial, we discussed “How we can create LVM” but there might arise a need for resizing LVM. One of the great advantages of using LVM is that we can resize LVM as per our needs. We can increase them in size either by allotting leftover space from our Volume group or we can add a new partition/disk to increase size & we can also reduce them in size. In this tutorial, we will be discussing just that i.e. resizing LVM.

If you are just joining us for this tutorial, I highly recommend that you read our tutorial for ‘Creating LVM’ before you move with this tutorial.
